Professional training by a puppy expert

Rawhide Thief

I've been meaning to get more video on the blog because it can really be helpful. But before I do any real recording, I need to make sure I know what I'm doing behind (and in front of) the camera. So today I thought I'd take some silly video of the dogs eating rawhide. It's amazing what you can see on video that you'd normally miss otherwise.

Watch how Nemo visibly stiffens and freezes right before Lily moves in. That's a beautiful warning, along with the growl, to let Lily know she's on thin ice. I probably would have missed it if I was just watching them, not taping them.

I plan to get more video on here soon, especially of nail trimming! So if you haven't yet subscribed to my free newsletter, Your Smart Dog, what are you waiting for? February's article was all about how to make nail trimming more enjoyable for both you and your dog. So go download that article, then watch this blog for some nail trimming video…

What People Are Saying

Smart Dog U really helped me deal with my first puppy and help me grow her (Etta) into a sweet little girl. Without that training from SDU this would have been a tough journey.

Ingrid Copeland

We did in-home training and group classes which helped us welcome Ember into our family. Her understanding of both dogs and busy families made the training easy and guilt-free.

Beth Schillaci

Thank goodness I discovered Smart Dog University! Laurie’s methods quickly made me realize that I was the one in need of training. The end result: A well behaved pup (Kasey) who is a true companion!

Matt Church

Laurie is someone Your Dog’s Friend depends on for good information on dog behavior and training presented in an engaging, understandable way. She has done free workshops for us; we have used her articles in our newsletter; and she is a trainer whom I can refer people to with total confidence.

Debra Ekman, Your Dog’s Friend

Laurie is a very knowledgeable and experienced trainer. She does a wonderful job with both the dog and owner. She is easily approachable and genuinely wants to make sure you and your dog are getting the most out of her classes.
